Fill Me Up
I just had to let you know
Cause i dont always let it show
You give me needed room to grow
And I just had to tell you so
You fill me up, youre in my veins
A look could take my breath away
And all these things, you give away
Sometimes I take for granted
Its just like poetry inside
To hear you breathing by my side
Like Im in heaven and ive died
So glad youre with me for this ride
You fill me up, youre in my veins
A look could take my breath away
And all these things, you give away
Sometimes I take for granted
I see your face to start my day
Makes all my bad dreams go away
And all the stupid games we play
Wouldnt have it any other way
You fill me up,youre in my veins
A look could take my breath away
And all these things, you give away
Sometimes i take for granted
You fill me up, youre in my veins
A look could take my breath away
And all these things, you give away
Sometimes I take for granted...

Price To Play
We fail to see
How destructive we can be
Taking without giving back
'Til the damage can be seen
Can you see?
Can you see?
The more you take, the more you blame
But everything still feels the same
The more you hurt, the more you strain
The price you pay to play the game
And all you seek, and all you gain
And all you step on with no shame
There are no rules, no one to blame
The price you pay to play the game
Apathy, the chosen way to be
Blindly look the other way
While you waste away with me
Can you see?
Can you see?
The more you take, the more you blame
But everything still feels the same
The more you hurt, the more you strain
The price you pay to play the game
And all you seek, and all you gain
And all you step on with no shame
There are no rules, no one to blame
The price you pay to play the game
What you pay to play the game
What you pay to play the game
What you pay to play the game
What you pay to play the game
The more you take, the more you blame
But everything still feels the same
The more you hurt, the more you strain
The price you pay to play the game
And all you seek, and all you gain
And all you step on with no shame
There are no rules, no one to blame
The price you pay to play the game
What you pay to play the game
What you pay to play the game
What you pay to play the game
What you pay to play the game

"Happy?"
In this hole
That is me
The dead are rolling over
In this hole
Thickening
Dirt shoveled over shoulders
I feel it in me
So overwhelmed
All this pressure centerizing
My life overturned
Unfair the despare
All these scars keep ripping open
Peel me from the skin
Tear meat from the rind
Does it make you happy now?
Tear meat from the bone
Tear me from myself
Are you feeling happy now?
In this hole
That is me
A life that's growing feeble
In this hole
So limiting
The sun has set; all darkens
Buried underneath
Hands slip off the wheel
Internal path-way to contention
Peel me from the skin
Tear me from the rind
Does it make you happy now?
Tear meat from the bone
Tear me from myself
Are you feeling happy now?
Are you
HAPPY
Are you
HAPPY
Are you feeling happy?
In this hole
That is me
Left with a heart exhausted
What's my release??
What sets me free?
Do you pull me up just to push me down again?
Peel me from the skin
Tear me from the rind
Does it make you happy now?
Tear meat from the bone
Tear me from myself
Are you feeling happy?
Peel me from the skiiiiiiiiiin
Peel me from the skiiiiiiiiiin
Tear me from the rind
Does it make you happy now?
Tear me from the boooooooooone
Tear me from the boooooooooone
Tear me from myself
Are you feeling happy?
Does it make you happy?
Are you feeling happy?
Are you fucking happy?
Now that I'm lost left with nothing
Does it make you happy?
Are you feeling happy?
Are you fucking happy?
Now that I'm lost left with nothing?

What are you going to do to end the silence?
Please understand my reasons for not speaking today. I am participating in the Day of Silence, a national youth movement protesting the silence faced by lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people and their allies. My deliberate silence echoes that silence, which is caused by harassment, prejudice, and discrimination
Epiphany
Your words to me just a whisper
Your Faces so unclear
I try to pay attention
Your words just disappear
'Cause it's always raining in my head
So I speak to you in riddles because
My wordes get in my way. I smoke the
Whole thing to my head and feel it
Wash away 'cause I can't take anymore
Of this, I want to come apart,
Or dig myself A little hole inside
Your precious heart
'Cause it's always raining in my head
Forget all the things I should have said
I am nothing more than a little boy inside
That cries out for attention,
though I always try to hide
And I talk to you like children,
But I don't know
How I feel but I know
I'll do the right thing
If the right thing is revealed.
But it's always Raining in my head
- Forget all the things
I should have said....
